Yes, I'll have to fix that string, but that will be for Lucid+1.

We can't really remove these checks because when changing password for a
user different than the current one, PAM doesn't check the password,
which is set using 'chpasswd'. The current situation is pretty lame, but
we'd have to parse PAM's config files in the backends and get the
information from there... Using PAM in the backends would be better, but
we don't support conversation in the protocol, and that would be very
hard to implement without breaking all the other gnome-system-tools. Not
likely to happen.

required password length for users should be the same as pam.d/common-password
